He’s a very dirty cop. He cheated on the elections. He tried to help Hillary Clinton.” The charges stem from an incident last year in which Mr. Comey posted a photo on social media of seashells arranged to read “86 47,” which critics said could be interpreted as a threat against the president. “86” is a slang term meaning to “get rid of” someone or something, and Mr. Trump is the nation’s 47th president. Following the uproar, Mr. Comey deleted the post and said he was unaware of any violent connotation. “I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence,” he said at the time. “It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down.” President Trump said “86” was a term employed by the mob that clearly means to “kill” somebody. “That’s a mob term for “kill ‘em,” he told reporters. “The mob uses that term.” #potus #jamescomey #whitehouse #cspan uNM8NBJlfQT Tq8p2ItecDn chf6Ipj12eq d74NCvKo1Wq Ai1zqbrHRoc 2oRBHe5l3Xq
